Beneath the Surface: Moon Bridge

"Beneath the Surface: Moon Bridge" 2017 The Huntington Library and its 120 acre garden is a botanical delight. I am constantly drawn to the end of the property towards their 9 acres Japanese Garden. The moon bridge, which was commissioned back in 1919 and was built by Toichiro Kawai , is a perfect foil over the koi pond. Its reflections in the water below creates a full circle in the still waters. The koi fish swimming in the pond reminded me of flowing hair beneath the surface. Once again I combined multiple elements to create a new image for this series. Julie Green November 11, 2017
